Procedures

enable-db

Enable Postgresql support for awful. This procedure basically sets up awful to use the connection, disconnection, query and query escaping procedures for Postgresql databases.

switch-to-postgresql-database

[procedure](switch-to-postgresql-database)

Resets all the awful db-related parameters to postgresql values (for when using multiple databases under the same awful server).

Parameters

db-result-processor

This parameter yields a one-argument procedure (the argument is the object representing the results as returned by the postgresql bindings).

The default value is:

(lambda(result)(row-map identity result))

This parameter has been added in version 0.5.
